Titus 1:9-16 (NASB) "HOLD[ing] FAST the FAITHFUL WORD which is in accordance with the TEACHING, so that he [you] will be able BOTH to EXHORT in SOUND DOCTRINE and to REFUTE those who CONTRADICT. For there are MANY REBELLIOUS men, EMPTY TALKERS and DECEIVERS... who MUST be SILENCED because they are UPSETTING whole FAMILIES, TEACHING things they should NOT TEACH for the sake of SORDID [greedy, filthy, shameful] GAIN. 12) One of themselves, a prophet of their own, said, “Cretans are always LIARS, EVIL BEASTS, LAZY GLUTTONS.” 13) This testimony is true. For this reason REPROVE them SEVERELY so that they may be SOUND in the FAITH, 14) NOT paying attention to Jewish MYTHS and COMMANDMENTS OF MEN who TURN AWAY from the TRUTH. 15) To the PURE, ALL things are PURE; but to those who are DEFILED and UNBELIEVING, NOTHING is PURE, but BOTH their MIND and their CONSCIENCE are DEFILED. 16) They PROFESS to KNOW GOD, but by their DEEDS they DENY HIM, being DETESTABLE and DISOBEDIENT and WORTHLESS for ANY DEED."

DECEPTION

Colossians 2:8 (NASB) "See to it that NO ONE takes you CAPTIVE through PHILOSOPHY and EMPTY (VAIN) DECEPTION, according to the TRADITION OF MEN, according to the ELEMENTARY PRINCIPLES of the WORLD, rather than according to CHRIST."

2 Timothy 3:13 (NASB) "But EVIL MEN and IMPOSTERS will proceed from BAD to WORSE, DECEIVING and BEING DECEIVED."

INTRO

FROM SO4J-TV: Everything we are saying on this page we say these things out of LOVE (Ephesians 4:15)— especially for God's people (2 Timothy 2:23-26)— HIS Sheep (John 10:3-17,26-29)— those who might have Strayed Unknowingly into these False Teachings (READ MORE). There's just enough TRUTH in what FALSE TEACHERS say to come across as being Credible & Biblical.

QUESTION: Do you have BIBLICAL DISCERNMENT and COMPARE what you're being TAUGHT with GOD's WORD? (Read Acts 17:11)

QUOTE by CHARLES SPURGEON [1834-1892]: "DISCERNMENT is NOT knowing the difference between RIGHT and WRONG. It is knowing the difference between RIGHT and ALMOST RIGHT."

FALSE TEACHERS VIDEO - SO4J-TV & JUSTIN PETERS

NEW! UPDATED 2017-2018 (8.5 HOURS on 2 DAYS) - JUSTIN PETERS - CLOUDS WITHOUT WATER II (A CALL FOR DISCERNMENT) SEMINAR DVD— is a Fair Biblical Critique of the Word of Faith Prosperity gospel / Charismatic Movement & the New Apostolic Reformation. 8.5 Hours on 2 DVDs, Produced by Justin Peters and SO4J-TV ®. Endorsed by SO4J-TV's Pastors: John MacArthur, Phil Johnson....and also Mike Gendron, and many more, and Filmed at: Grace Community Church, CA in the Family Center. Clouds Without Water DVD - Produced by Justin Peters & SO4J-TV®

In this above video SO4J-TV (SO4J.com) & Justin Peters (JustinPeters.org) talk about "FALSE VISITS TO HEAVEN & HELL - 10 DANGERS OF EXTRA-BIBLICAL REVELATIONS”, i.e. Why Claims of Afterlife Experiences from MANY so-called "Christian Books" are NOT Reliable, in fact these MANY books & testimonies are Extra-Biblical (Rev 22:18-19) and UNbiblical. SO4J-TVs Martha Mac sat down with Justin Peters to talk about these so-called Visions of Heaven & Hell and to take Justin through SO4J-TV's Top 10 List of Dangers of these Claimed Visits to Heaven & Hell. This video is a WARNING to ALL to RUN from these dangerous False Extra-Biblical Visions & False Teachers to the True Gospel of Repentance & Faith in Jesus Christ (Mark 1:15). Heaven & Hell is a Real place, but these so-called Christian Books of their many visions of Heaven & Hell are NOT real. From SO4J-TV: There is a Danger when people look to “Spiritual Experiences” as their source for: Information, Warning & Hope, rather than looking to the Scriptures. We must not allow our desire for Excitement & Wonder determine what is True. We cannot base our Beliefs on “Feelings” or someone else’s UNRELIABLE “Visions & Mystical Experiences”, but ONLY on the “sure Word of God”. Where one spends Eternity, in either Heaven or Hell, is far too important a matter to be misled by: False & Unprovable Mystical experiences. As Believers we have an understandable desire to warn the lost of their Eternal Punishment in Hell if they do not Repent-&-Trust in Jesus (Mark 1:15). And certainly we want everyone to be with the Lord for Eternity in Heaven. But is there a danger in going “beyond what is written” (1 Corinthians 4:6) in Scripture, regardless of how exciting or sensational it may be, or even if it supposedly “points people to Jesus”? Despite the many problems or outright deceptions of these so-called claimed visits to Heaven and Hell, the Bible tells us clearly that Heaven & Hell ARE real places where every single person that has ever lived will spend Eternity in. The Eternal destinies of people are far too serious of a matter to entrust to Anything OR Anyone outside of the Scriptures. Scriptures are abundantly sufficient to Inform and Teach us about the REAL Heaven and the REAL Hell.

BIBLICAL DISCERNMENT & THE TRUE GOSPEL

QUOTES

QUOTE by SO4J-TV's PASTOR: JOHN MACARTHUR: "The SELF-ESTEEM CULT that goes around saying we've got to build up people's SELF-ESTEEM is taking them the OPPOSITE way that the Message of the Bible does, because the MORE you LOVE YOURSELF the LESS likely you are to need a Savior. SELF-ESTEEMISM is based on an UNBIBLICAL perspective. It is diametrically OPPOSED to the truth of HUMAN DEPRAVITY. Moreover, while Scripture commends SELF-CONTROL as a FRUIT of the SPIRIT, the Bible has NOTHING positive to say about: SELF-ESTEEM, SELF-LOVE, or any other VARIETY of SELF-CENTEREDNESS."

QUOTE by our PASTOR: JOHN MACARTHUR: THE SELF-LOVE GOSPEL is UNBIBLICAL: "If you're into SELF-LOVE, and SELF-ESTEEM and making sure all your little NEEDS are met, making sure you're INDULGED with ALL your FANTASIES, DREAMS, HOPES, & AMBITIONS, you're going to LOSE YOUR LIFE in ETERNAL HELL. If you LOVE YOURSELF SO MUCH to hold on like the RICH YOUNG RULER [Luke 18:18-30], you're going to go away WITHOUT ETERNAL LIFE. But if you HATE YOURSELF [Luke 14:26-27], then you're going to RECEIVE ETERNAL LIFE. You either SAVE your life NOW, or LOSE it FOREVER [OR] LOSE your life NOW, and SAVE it FOREVER. That simple." [The “HATRED” called for here is actually a "LESSER LOVE". Jesus was calling his DISCIPLES to cultivate such a DEVOTION to him that their ATTACHMENT to EVERYTHING ELSE—including their OWN LIVES—would SEEM LIKE HATRED by COMPARISON.”]

DOCTRINE: GOOD DOCTRINE VS BAD DOCTRINE

SO4J-TV's CONCERN

Jude 1:1-4 (NKJV) "Jude warns, “Jude, a Bondservant of Jesus Christ (Half Brother of Jesus), and Brother of James— To those who are CALLED, SANCTIFIED by God the Father, & PRESERVED in Jesus: MERCY, PEACE, and LOVE be MULTIPLIED to you. Beloved, while I was VERY DILIGENT to write to you concerning our COMMON SALVATION, I found it necessary to write to you EXHORTING you to CONTEND EARNESTLY for the FAITH which was once for all delivered to the SAINTS. For CERTAIN MEN have CREPT IN UNNOTICED, who long ago were marked out for this Condemnation, UNGODLY men, who turns the GRACE of our GOD into LEWDNESS and DENY the only Lord God and our Lord Jesus Christ."

1 Peter 3:15 (NKJV) "SANCTIFY the LORD GOD in your HEARTS, & ALWAYS be READY to give a DEFENSE to EVERYONE who asks you a REASON for the HOPE that is in you, with MEAKNESS and FEAR."

Everything we are saying on this page we say these things out of LOVE— especially for God's people (2 Timothy 2:23-24,26)— HIS Sheep (John 10:3-17, 26-29)— those who might have Strayed Unknowingly into these False Teachings. There are Believers who are unknowingly being Led Astray & Deceived in their involvement with these False Teacher's Ministries (Gal 1:6-10, 2 John 1:10-11). Our hope is that they & all of us, will closely Examine these False Teachings with the God's Word (Acts 17:11), and Escape from these Many Deceptions (Rom 16:17-18, 2 Tim 4:1-4). The More Truth that is mixed with Error, the Greater the Deception. Pure water mixed with even a little Poison will kill you (Gal 5:9).

The Info on this False Teachers page is not intended to be a Personal Attack on any one Person, or their Ministries. We LOVE & DO PRAY for these Ministers, but we must share our DEEP CONCERN for the MANY FALSE PROPHECIES (of some of these Preachers), who've shown NO Public Remorse or Repentance for Misleading People. Our Concern too is that the LUKEWARM MESSAGES of many of these Ministers, and/or many of their LAVISH LIFESTYLES (that are CONTRARY TO GOD'S WORD), are leading people AWAY from the NARROW PATH, and encouraging them to stay on the BROAD PATH that Leads to DESTRUCTION— Matt 7:13-28. We want to state too that we are so Thankful for the Lord Jesus extending His Mercy towards us, of which we want to extend that same Attitude of Mercy towards these Preachers who might unknowingly be doing these wrong Practices. We Pray that they will Turn from many of these Unbiblical Practices— and start Preaching SOUND DOCTRINE (like Jesus, Peter, Paul, John the Baptist, etc) which should CONVICT PEOPLE OF SIN, and of GOD'S RIGHTEOUSNESS, and HIS COMING JUDGMENT— John 16:8.

You might Not like what you: Read, Watch, or Listen to on this Page. You might Not understand what is so Wrong with the Word of Faith Prosperity Gospel, Catholicism, Emergent Church, and other False Teachings on this page.

Many well known Evangelists & Preachers have Publicly Prophesied on TV, in their Books, etc. and have said "Thus Says the Lord". We encourage you to find out if the particular Preacher's Prophecy ever came true. If NOT, you are dealing with a False Prophet, and God takes False Prophecy and Adding To His Word Seriously- Deut 18:20-22, Rev 22:18-19. We are NOT to get caught up in these Preachers Charming & seemingly Inspirational Personalities, but to Compare EVERYTHING (even what we are saying) with God's Word (1 Thess 5:21), to see if this is Truth. And— even if a Prophecy does come true, we are to still Examine it in the light of God's Word making sure it lines up with Scripture; for God might beTESTING YOU: Deut 13:1-18.

Part of that Deut 13:1-18 Test is: Will you simply Trust & Obey God's Word, or will you walk in a way that blindly Trusts & Follows people who claim to be Christians (Matt 7:21-23), those claiming to have a "Special Revelation or Word from God" for you or others (but their Beliefs are not in line with God's Word); or Prophecies (that don't come true); Visions (that don't line up with God's Word 100%); Hearing the Audible Voice of Jesus (but what they actually Believe does not line up with God's Word); People who claim they've Seen & Been with Jesus— or claim to have been to Heaven or Hell (but the story doesn't match up with God's Word 100%). Remember, some of these False Teachers Prophecies might come True— Don't be Deceived. Believe & Obey God's Word only.

SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES, BE DISCERNING, BE DILIGENT, and COMPARE EXACTLY what you are Hearing from these False Teachers, along with their False Prophecies (that are Mixed with 80%Truth in their Sermons), and Compare it with God's Word. (Acts 17:11) Remember too, it's not always what False Teachers say, it's what they DON'T say. MANY lean only on God's Love & Not being like Jesus and Warning people about Hell, Judgment,etc (John 16:8). Love is Not merely giving people what they want, Love Warns too of Danger.

FYI Only - Many of us here at SO4J-TV used to be involved in Word of Faith Prosperity gospel & or Catholicism so we understand the Deception well! May the Lord Bless You, Strengthen You, and Give you (us too) Great Discernment as Cling to JESUS & Trust in God's Word— in an age of Apostasy & Deception (Matt 24:11, 2 Tim 4:3-4).

Romans 16:17-18“MARK THEM which cause DIVISIONS & OFFENCES CONTRARY TO THE DOCTRINE which you have learned; and AVOID them. STAY AWAY from them. Such people are not serving Christ our Lord; they are serving their own Personal Interests. By SMOOTH TALK and GLOWING WORDS they deceive INNOCENT PEOPLE."

Acts 17:11 "The people of Berea... listened EAGERLY to PAUL'S MESSAGE. They SEARCHED the SCRIPTURES DAY AFTER DAY to see if PAUL & SILAS were Teaching the TRUTH."
